Nepicastat is a dopamine beta-hydroxylase inhibitor with IC50 of 8.5 ±0.8 and 9.0 ±0.8 nM for bovine and human, respectively. Dopamine beta-hydroxylase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine. It has been studied as a possible treatment for congestive heart failure, and appears to be well tolerated as such.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
